Abstract
A process for preparing a catalyst support or a supported Group VIII metal catalyst or a precusor of the supported Group VIII metal catalyst, which process comprises (a) exerting mechanical power on a mixture comprising a refractory oxide and a first liquid to obtain a dough, (b) admixing the dough with a second liquid to obtain a slurry, (c) shaping and drying the slurry, and (d) calcining.
Claims14
A process for preparing a catalyst support or a supported Group VIII metal catalyst or a precursor of the supported Group VIII metal catalyst, which process comprises
- (a) exerting mechanical power on a mixture comprising a refractory oxide and a first liquid to obtain a dough,
- (b) admixing the dough with a second liquid to obtain a slurry,
- (c) shaping and drying the slurry, and
- (d) calcining,
- on the understanding that, if a supported Group VIII metal catalyst or a precursor of the supported Group VIII metal catalyst is prepared, a precursor compound of the Group VIII metal or the Group VIII metal itself is present as an additional component in step (a) or step (b).
